   Figures you would get it Mel! Yes, and for your fun enjoyment, I have included the translation below. As an added bonus, I have included a link to the actual song here.

   HYMN TO RED OCTOBER
   Lyrics and Music by Basil Poledouris
   Russian Translation by Herman Sinitzen

   Holodna hmoora. — Cold, hard, empty.
   Eemruchnoh v’doosheh –Light that has left me,
   Kak mohg znat ya shtoh tee oomriosh? –How could I know that you would die?

   Do svidonia, byehreg rodnoy –Farewell again, our dear land.
   Kak nam troodnag pridstahvit shtoh eto nyeh sohn. –So hard for us to imagine that it’s real, and not a dream.
   Rodina, dom radnoy, –Motherland, native home,
   Do svidonia Rodina. –Farewell, our Motherland.

   Ay. Avepakhod, avepakhod, nass val nahmarskaya zhdyot nyehdazh dyotsyah. –Let’s go; the sea is waiting for us.
   Nass zah vootmarskaya dah, ee preeboy! –The vastness of the sea is calling to us, and the tides!

   Salute otsam ee nashem dedum –Hail to our fathers and forefathers.
   Zahvietum eekh fsigdah vierney. –We are faithful to the covenant made with the past.
   Tepierre nichtoh, nee astanoivit, –Now nothing can stop
   Pabiedney shark, radnoy straney. –Our Motherland’s victorious march.

   Tiy pliyvee, pliyvee bestrashna, –Sail on fearlessly,
   Gordest say viernykh marieye. –Pride of the Northern Seas.
   Revoluytziye nadezhdah sgoostk vierif sekh luydeye. –Hope of the Revolution, you are the burst of faith of the people.

   The last two stanzas repeat a couple of times, then:

   V’oktyabreh, v’oktyabreh,–In October, in October,
   Rahpar tu ium miy nashe pabiediy. –We report our victories to you, our Revolution.
   V’oktyabreh, v’oktyabreh, Novie meeir fahli numnashy dehidiy. –And to the heritage left by you for us.

   Poledouris’s “Hymn to Red October” has been one of my favoritest soundtracks since 1990.

   Thanks very, very much for posting the lyrics in standard (latin/roman/english alphabet) because now I can hum the lyrics to myself.

   I speak Spanish and English but no Russian. My Mom (from all people) learned -and then quickly forgot-the Russian she needed to attend a conference in Москва́ a long time ago and I never met my great uncle Nikita, who came to Peru shortly after (when else?) 1917.

   Thanks from Lima, Peru
